40 order constraints? A big cluster. > Though in his book he writes that this feature is quite new and might > still be buggy and thus not recommended for productive use - I don't > know though on which version of pacemaker he makes this assumption. > > Currently we use 1.1.2.

You can also use the crm shell to edit constraints. It should look sth like this: order o inf: lvm ( rsc1 rsc2 ... rscn ) providing that rsc1 ... rscn don't depend on each other. > And is this feature now safe to use? Should be. But the number of resources you want to put into the set is unusually large. Try this first on a test cluster. It is also possible to use several constraints: order o1 inf: lvm ( rsc1 rsc2 ... rscm ) order o2 inf: lvm ( rscm+1 rscm+2 ... ) ... > Thanks in advance and happy new year to everyone.
